Chapter 64: Volume 2 - CH 39

Chapter 2-39. Open-air Bath


 

　A large communal bath where women's and men's baths are separated by bamboo walls.

 

　There are other moss growing on the surrounding rocks, which is a great place for me.

 

　I never thought I would put it in a hot spring in such a place.

 

　I seem to be pretty lucky.

 

"Ouren-sama. Was it okay?"

 

　Next to me is Uchikage who is in the hot spring together with me.

 

　Even in the bath, he is still blindfolded.

 

　Actually, I was helped by Uchikage earlier.

 

　Certainly my body was taken to the women's bath, but it seems that Uchikage created my shadow clone with [Dark Medium] and exchanged it for my main body.

 

　In other words, what the princess brought wasn't me.

 

　It's a fake.

 

　He said that the more my body is  covered in the shadow, the body that was created with the [Dark Medium], the longer it will last.

 

　This is a bath and the sun is still high.

 

　However, it seems that he created a separate body using the darkness of his shadow as a medium, so it seems that he will have about 15 minutes even with this brightness.

 

　It really helped me.

 

　I use infinite water to manipulate the water in the hot springs to create a thumbs-up hand and tell Uchikage that it's okay.

 

"That was good .... By the way, is that really okay?"

 

　What Uchikage says is the style of entering my hot spring.

 

　Now I'm floating in the bath with hot water in a wooden tub.

 

　I'm wrapped myself in a tub, so it fits nicely and feels good.

 

　I can also put my head on the edge of the tub.

 

　Isn't it perfect?

 

　By the way, I tried to enter without a tub, but I couldn't breathe unless I stretched my body vertically, so I looked like a hairtail.

 

　Now I have to be careful to breathe.

 

　I want to relax more and enjoying myself

 

　So I thought about this tub bath.

 

　I think it's a wonderful idea.

 

　Paradise~, what a paradise ~.

 

"Are you satisfied? we should be going."

 

　Sure.

 

　I am happy to be able to take the open-air bath again.

 

　Next time I want to enter in the form of a human.

 

　...... Maybe the princess takes a bath every day?

　If that happens, do I have to run away every day?

 

　Uwaah, what a pain ...

 

　Oh, by the way, I can evolve.

 

　There is only Uchikage and I. I wonder if I should evolve.

 

　I've forgotten about it, but this lingering feeling is still in my head!

 

　Turn my beard back!

 

　Well ... what is my evolution path again?

 

　Heavenly voice.

 

　I feel like it's been a while since I called it.

 

　Please tell me my evolution path.

 

===============

 

―Evolution path―

 

>Wave Snake<

 

>Forest Snake<

 

===============

 

　Oh right, Forest Snake.

 

　Well, Wave Snake is fine too.

 

　I want to become a big snake, so I'll choose Forest Snake!

 

　I set the evolution path to Forest Snake, I can see my body grow larger.

 

　The tub broke because I suddenly grew larger.

 

　I'm sorry, I forgot.

 

　The leaves on my head fall off, and horns grow instead.

 

　It's not a demon-like horn, but it still looks pretty sharp.

 

"What the- !?"

 

　Uchikage is also surprised and stunned.

 

　Well, he probably has never seen species evolution.

 

　By the time the evolution was over, my body had grown to ten meters, and my body diameter was about the size of a two-liter plastic bottle.

 

　Oh gawd, I'm long and thicc!

 

　And it's been a while since I checked my status!

　…………Hmm?

You are reading story I Was a Small Fish When I Reincarnated, but It Seems That I Can Become a Dragon, so I Will Do My Best at novel35.com

 

　…………that’s all?

 

　Eh, nothing is increasing?

 

　……Hmm? Nothing is increasing?

 

　Haah? What the heck?

 

　Well, maybe the skill that Plant Snake had is the same as the skill that Forest Snake has, right?

 

　But if that's the case, I should be able to get photosynthesis again.

 

　What's going on, voice of heaven!

 

[Because you have reached the upper limit of your species evolution path, you can not acquire any skills like before in species evolution in the snake race. You can acquire skills without problems in race change evolution]

 

　I can't Believe It…….

 

　Does that mean that race evolution will only be used to incrpease the status?

 

　Hmmm, I just got bigger in vain.

 

　Is that okay?

 

　No good!

 

　I haven’t looked for Satella yet!

 

"Ouren-sama !? Are you okay?"

 

　Oh, I’m okay.

 

　Because I just evolved.

 

"Kyaaaaaaa!!! Ouren-samaaaaaaaaa !!

 

　I heard a scream from the back of the bamboo wall.

 

　That voice would be the princess.

 

　So ... Did the time of the dark medium of Uchikage run out?

 

　However, the clone should not have been standing for fifteen minutes yet ...

 

"Oh, sorry, Ouren-sama. My [Dark Medium] is something that will be released if I lose my concentration ..."

 

　...... It seems to be his concentration off because he was surprised that I had evolved.

 

　I'm sorry for that.

 

　What will happen when the [Dark Medium] is released to make such a loud voice?

 

　It doesn't look good just from her voice.

 

"Ha ha ha. With this, I'm more and more likely to be hated by the princess."

 

　Ah, for sure.

 

　He is pretty tough on the princess.

 

　I think that's about it.

 

　I mean, if there isn't anyone who is strict to the princess, she can't grow up to be a really good child.

 

　I can't say for sure because I have no experience in raising children.

 

"Uchikage! You blockhead! You've replaced this with Ouren-sama!"

 

"Oops ... You just noticed it? What should we do, Ouren-sama? There is no way you are going to that side in this state, right?"

 

　Well, I wanted to enjoy it more, but it can't be helped.

 

　Let's get out.

 

　We got out of the bath and went straight to the dressing room.

 

　I use [Infinite Water Manipulation] to blow off the water on my body.

 

　By the way, I did the same for Uchikage.

 

　Thank you for your help.

 

　His hair is completely dry because all the water has been drained.

 

　It looks like I can flip the water off from any clothes.

 

"Oh ...as expected, Ouren-sama is good at handling water, aren’t you?"

 

　Well, I just put the skills together to manipulate water.

 

　We should have rushed away from here with haste.

 

　I'll be free for a while, and maybe I can go back to where Tenda and Raiki were.

　I can hear a fluttering sound next to us.

 

　Probably the princess.

 

　I poke Uchikage and urge him to hurry.

 

　It seems that Uchikage also knew, so I decided to walk with him and run away from the princess.

 

　◆

 

　Uchikage and I are walking to the room where Raiki and his friends are.

 

　I thought it was better for me to walk by myself, because I can no longer ride on people's shoulders.

 

　If I try to ride on someone, my big white body will wrap around their whole body.

 

　I mean ... My body is quite heavy.

 

　I've never been such a big snake.

 

　It will take a while to get used to it.

 

　Wave Snake is a small snake, so let's make a race change evolution next time.

 

[Sufficient mass has been detected. Record]

 

　Pardon me? What is it, voice of heaven?

 

[Sufficient words have been detected. Record]

 

[Good deeds are inadequate. Cannot record]

 

[Understanding is insufficient. Cannot record]

 

[The figure is inadequate. Cannot record]

 

　Huh! ?? What's happening! ??

 

　I'm a little scared!

 

　Please do not say five mysterious sentences in quick succession!

 

　What is this! ??

 

　I don't understand!

 

　Oi! Heavenly voice! What's this!

 

[It's a oni]

 

　I'm not talking about Uchikage.

 

　I mean, what is that you said earlier!

 

[…………]

 

　Aww come on!

 

　Ahhh, fine ... please answer it at your own pace.

 

　When I thought that it came out after a long time, It left a mysterious word ...

 

　I don't know how long it will take.
